One may find direct analogues of this situation in oceanography and meteorology.
It is an issues-based book where the details of geology, ecology, climatology and oceanography are subsumed by unifying principles applied at a global scale.
By including informed contributions from experts in a diverse range of fields, including health, oceanography and tropical agriculture, a wide-ranging discussion is presented.
It consists of 38 pages and discusses the physical oceanography, sea ice, snow cover, and different meteorological parameters.
The book will be of value to students, research workers and practitioners in oceanography and coastal engineering.
Such limitation is particularly relevant in the fields of polar research and oceanography.
Chapter 1 is a good account of the present-day glaciology, atmospheric circulation and oceanography.
Finally, we would like to comment that the geophysical relevance of the boundarylayer analysis and the corresponding laboratory experiments referred to earlier is probably restricted to oceanography only.
